Özet

Objective: To evaluate the clinicopathological characteristics of primary mucinous ovarian carcinoma (MOC) and define oncologic outcomes. Material and Methods: This retrospective study reviewed patients diagnosed with primary MOC at a single institution and underwent primary treatment between 1990 and 2019. The clinicopathological factors affecting oncological outcomes and treatment response were evaluated. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to evaluate survival outcomes. Survival curves were compared using the log-rank test. Results: The cohort’s (n=92) median (range) age was 48 (15-82) years. Seventy-five (81.5%) patients were in the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage I-II. Forty patients received platinum-based adjuvant chemotherapy. The 5-year progression-free survival was 98% in stage I-II and 17% for stage III-IV (p<0.001). In multivariate analysis, the only independent risk factor for disease failure was stage (hazard ratio: 6.838, 95% confidence interval: 1,358-34,415; p=0.020). Conclusion: Advanced stage was an independent poor prognostic factor for recurrence in patient with MOC. (J Turk Ger Gynecol Assoc 2023; 24: 252-60).
